An Lan's voice spread around the area.
The few who had just stood on the moral high ground immediately fell silent. One million yuan is not a hundred yuan; everyone is just an ordinary person. Even if someone does have that amount of money, who would spend so much on a stranger? No one's that foolish.
"Ridiculous, what does this matter have to do with us? Asking us to pay? It's your own issue; you deal with it yourselves and stop involving innocent bystanders like us."
"Exactly, exactly! Just came to watch the commotion, and now we're being asked to pay? Does this have anything to do with us? Young lady, if you don't like our chatter, just stop listening. Why so hostile? Ugh, we're too scared to speak now."
...
When it comes to their own interests, of course, they're unwilling.
It's just like they say, unless the knife cuts their own flesh, they don't know the pain. As they spoke, these people retreated, as if afraid An Lan would really ask them for money.
